Note that Points & Cash is really a full points award. IHG merely sells you the additional points needed to redeem the award. If you later cancel the reservation, the points purchase won’t be reversed.

Conclusion

This is an easy way to get around the points purchase limit that IHG has. You can essentially buy an unlimited number of points this way.

The cash portion varies from property to property at the same award level. If your intention is to merely buy points, it makes sense to observe the pricing in various cities first.
